About Breathwork, Breathing Techniques, Pranayama and Vivation...
Breathwork is used to get in touch with and heal suffering caused by unconscious conditioning, unresolved birth trauma and old emotional wounds.
Breathwork is a term covering various focussed breathing techniques. By freeing the breath one learns to breathe through difficult or uncomfortable experiences and feelings where the tendency has been to hold one's breath. Energy from a denied experience can be freed up and released. The after-effects of this can be an enormous sense of relief. Old patterns of holding begin to gently break up and a new sense of aliveness enters as the breath anchors one's self in the present. You can have a sense of being 'reborn' - hence the term Rebirthing.
Breathwork comes in many forms, each form having a different aim. The first conscious breathing techniques were developed thousands of years ago. All cultures throughout the world are familiar with the use of breath as a ´transformational tool.
Using breath awareness as a primary catalyst, one can discover a simple and natural way to access the inner world of the human psyche and learn to relax.
Breathwork has developed rapidly. Practices such as Rebirthing, Conscious Breathing, Holotropic Breathwork, Vivation, Transformational Breathwork, Yoga, Pranayama, Tai Chi, Chi Kung and others attract increasing numbers of practitioners and teachers.
